While our lives may be broken and we face many kinds of suffering, we can have peace that comes from the wonderful counsel of God and His mighty power. He is a faithful loving Everlasting Father.
Everlasting Father (He Shall Be Called: week 3)
Jesus is called the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.
Jesus perfectly reflects the Father in heaven. He has three prominent roles which invite us to a response of surrender. These three roles will allow Jesus to “settle” and heal our brokenness, just like the people of Israel in Isaiah’s time.
Whatever struggle you have in this advent season, Jesus teaches us that we can trust Him. There is no brokenness we can experience that is too big for our Eternal Father to help us in. Jesus’ life and sacrifice provides a perfect picture of how our Father in Heaven sees us as His creation. He loves us.
This advent season is the perfect time to surrender all things to Jesus, and let Him give you new life in return.
Mighty God (He Shall Be Called: week 2)
When we worship God, both as a community of believers and individually, we sing; we have joy; we extol Him; and we thank Him. Worship becomes our response as we understand who God is.
Wonderful Counselor (He Shall Be Called: week 1)
We can share the Hope we have in a Wonderful Counselor. We can share the wisdom we receive in a Wonderful Counselor. We can share the life we find in a Wonderful Counselor by simply praying with others and helping them meet the Wonderful Counselor, Jesus.
He Shall Be Called
The title you call someone reveals a level of trust or respect in their character or abilities. The title we give God is a reflection of our trust in His character and His abilities. Jesus came to reveal to us a God Who we can call upon in any situation. Jesus is a light who reveals that God is a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and a Prince of Peace. We can trust Him with everything and in anything.
